THE GODS OF PRETSHWANE
PreTshwane's portal to the underworld
PreTshwane’s portal to the underworld (2021), features the derelict modernist residential block, Kruger Park, located west of the city centre, overshadowed by an amplified statue of Paul Kruger. A failed apartheid development, Kruger Park was previously part of Marabastad’s residential area. Depicted as a gateway to the underworld, the building and the statue are gradually gently concealed by greenery, creating a new hybrid landmark.
